Dvar Torah for Behaalosecha 3rd Aliyah: Actual text: https://tinyurl.com/5f5w2jsj On the first anniversary of the Exodus, the children of Israel are instructed to bring the Pesach offering in its appointed time (9:2). In the next pasuk, the Torah instructs, “You [Moshe] shall make it [the Pesach offering] in its appointed time” (9:3). It seems reasonable that stating this law once would be sufficient. Why then would the Torah repeat itself in the very next sentence? And why mention Moshe, a human who does not live forever, in a lasting law? Rav Hirsch suggests that the first instruction is for future generations, while the second is meant to address Moshe directly as a means to acknowledge the immortality of the community he created. This honorable mention highlights the critical concept of community that Moshe initiated. Just as Moshe created a lasting community that will honor him eternally, we too have the opportunity to leave a lasting legacy in our respective communities that will forever endure.
